"an ounce of action...

...is worth a ton of theory." So said Ralph Waldo Emerson.

Here are some of the actions I've taken of late. First, the weekend:

-to fix my bike (or have someone fix it for me).---Not quite done yet.-to clean my car--at least throw some of the shit away and clean my dashboard. --Yep. Not thoroughly, but I'd eat off the dashboard, which is saying a lot.-run 5 miles--Yes!-do one other workout (hike? bike? yoga? another run?)--Does ten minutes of pilates and stretching count?-finish curtains,damnit! I just have to hem them, but ugh, hemming is such a drag. --Yes, done and hung!-harvest bees' honey, but only if the weather cooperates (and it looks like it's supposed to rain, rain, rain.)--Rain, rain, rain, but I started getting prepped. Just have to pick up some supplies at the Home Depot.-finish grading IB film reflections--Yes, done!-catch up on sleep--Yes, except for last night...Daylight savings is a rough one.-have friends over for potluck/movie/craft night tomorrow--Yes!-read in bed--Not for long, but a wee bit.-craft something--Yes!-cook something--Made an amazing sweet potato curry with cinnamon and cardamom, shallots, green onions, cauliflower, rice, lemon juice, soy sauce, coconut milk, avacado, cilantro, and bean sprouts. Mmmm.-pick up house (dust a bit, sweep a bit, straighten a bit)--Yes!

Not bad, not bad.

Here are this week's goals:

--Mail some cards out to some loved ones (hand made)--run 8 miles.--do stomach crunches every day.--grade 5 lit. essays every day until they're done.--help out a friend.--continue crafting--finish reading 2 books.--Harvest honey (if possible. It looks to be cold and wet all week long)--get bike fixed.

Goals for this week: finish taxes (forms for accountant) search continuing ed courses out of state finish new tile on fire place continue workout 2-3 times per weekFuture goals: find dress for upcoming wedding be perfect grandma for current and FUTURE grandchildren

Taxes, ugh. Tax season always comes so quick. Definitely something that I need to get done as well. You know that the wedding is informal, right? Wear something comfortable OR you can dress fancy and change after we do the photos. That will work fine too. Did you see my post about wedding colors on the wedding blog? I hope that helps for dress shopping!
